Super hero accused of sexual assault

Down The Tubes picked up on a bizarre news story from http://www.local6.com/news/12955416/detail.html. Allegations of sexual assault are no laughing matter, but the addition of a Captain America superhero costume does add some unintentional comedy to the tale. For me, the kicker comes in the final sentence.

A Central Florida doctor is accused of sexually assaulting a woman during a costume party while he was dressed as the super hero Captain America. Raymond Adamcik was arrested Saturday night at the On Tape Café and Lounge and booked at the Melbourne Police Department while still wearing blue tights and a Captain America head gear.

"It was just a group of doctors that were traveling throughout the city going from bar to bar," Melbourne police representative Jill Fredricksen said. Authorities said Adamcik was in possession of a large burrito and drugs.
